Falls Prevention Month activitiesThroughout the month of September
While Falls Prevention Awareness Week takes place from September 22 – 28, we believe it’s important enough to warrant an entire month of education! As a result, Golden West Senior Living will partner with Boulder County Area Agency on Aging to bring awareness to prevention, preparation and actions to take against preventing falls. Many of the activities will be taking place at our community.
